In hours, how much time did you volunteer?

4 hours

Describe your volunteer activities in detail.

My volunteer activities consisted of cleaning the city of Corona by picking up trash and plastics. It was a long tedious and rewarding process spent with friends also picking up trash.

What were your accomplishments?

I accomplished picking up 9 trash bags worth full of garbage and managed to take several pictures to document my time at the Temescal Wash. It was also the first time I had ever picked up that much garbage in my life and it was a good experience that made me think twice about littering.

What did you learn?

I learned that littering is not worth it and can honestly say that I will never do it after picking up trash for four hours. I also learned what a difference one morning full of selfless volunteering and hard work can do. The before and after results were unbelievable and by the afternoon it looked really nice.

Attach any videos, images, audio, files, links or other documents related to your volunteer work, such as 'before and after' images, or videos of the volunteering in action. Give clear names and descriptions to the items so as to educate about your experience.
